Do you have more or less hope for Madden 14 than you did before Madden 13?

Just curious to see how people feel going into Madden 14 compared to how they felt going into Madden 13. I know there was a lot of excitement for 13 because of Cam Weber and the new dev team members. Has that excitement remained or died down quite a bit, now that you have played Madden 13? Madden 13 was supposed to be year one of the three year plan, so let's see if year 2 is more of the same or we see clear improvement in terms of gameplay and fundamental football simulation.

Personally, I still have hope for Madden's future, but I'm not as excited for 14 as I was 13. Let's hope we will be pleasantly surprised at what Madden 14 has to offer.

Hard to say without any info on madden 14 out yet. But I have learned to lower my expectations for Madden going forward. I enjoy 13, but it wasn't as progressive a title as I thought it would be.

Neither more or less. Hope is not part of the equation for me.

It is when/if the details come out on M14 that will start to shape my sentiment towards the game.

I have yet to be disappointed from one iteration to the next, aside from franchise being a little stale year over year a couple of years back. I am excited to see where they take CCM, so I am more hopeful.

More curious to see the differences between 360/PS3 and the next gen systems. Certainly more tentative hope there, but hope nonetheless.

When NCAA or Madden have weaker years/fewer changes/fail to hold my attention as strongly I tend to play the other one more is all. When NCAA reworked their dynasty mode and added coaching carousel I didn't think I'd be buying Madden again. CCM changed that, so now I look forward to see how CCM is implemented in NCAA. A lot of pie in the sky hopes and wishes from there, we'll see where it goes. The possibility of no longer making NCAA games in the near future will probably prevent interoperability from expanding (if it returns at all?) though.

It is hard to say without any info yet, but was just curious where people stood as of today. Hopefully we will see more info on gameplay improvements and less hype of new irrelevant features when info on 14 does start to come out.

So far this is the only info of any sort we have for Madden 14

Less. I haven't fallen for the hype since '10...

Each and every year sports gaming forums bash and rant on Madden and give hopes and praises on the next year. Then next year's game arrives and the cycle begins again.

Why should it be any different? I hope we don't get anything new before fixing what we have. Your mad because there's no GTA mode in Superstar? Boo hoo. Keep dreaming Alice.
